Are all "Head" characters the same entity?

I love how the polls just pop up out of nowhere without any new comments.

Yeah, they show as new every time someone votes. It’s my favorite feature. :mad:

I am clueless about this topic. So you know how I voted.

Giving the poll a bump. I’m still leaning toward yes. If not the same entity, I think they represent the same force. Or forces. Hell, I dunno…

My thinking on this is that I disagree with the premise of the question. I really think that Head Six and Head Baltar are completely in the head of Baltar (and Head Baltar those couple of times in the head of CapSix.) In other words, the “heads” are figments of the imagination. In the 1st season we, as an audience, were dangled the notion that Head Six was some “real” “physical” (or maybe even spiritual) entity of some kind. But at this point I conclude the “heads” are litterally all in the head.

I’m with you on this, Thot. I thought for a good long while that they could be something else, something greater, but I think they’re ultimately just manifestations of their personality, whether it’s Caprica’s guilt or Baltar’s inner need not just to survive, but thrive in any condition, to do what’s necessary to get what he really wants.

I’m another “frakked if I know” vote, but I’m tending towards a yes, they are the same entity… and I’m still waiting for the Caprica / HeadSix scene!! and more Baltar on Baltar, of course. It makes me wish we had seen more Caprica with HeadBaltar, because those scenes were pretty amusing as well.

And by entity, I’m using the widest sense of the term.

Voted frakked. My initial musings concluded that the head characters were probably more like the classic “shoulder angels” than anything else, but ???

And Casilda you got me wondering now, with all the declarations of love between Caprica and Tigh lately, maybe she doesn’t have a head Baltar anymore…maybe she has a head Tigh?

I don’t know about any of you, but I think my mind would be blown if I ever got to see that.

I seem to be voting “Frakked if I know”, alot lately.
I’m sure I pulled a muscle in my brain.
